The Place Beyond The Pines Movie Review: | |
The Place Beyond the Pines wants to be a deep-dish meditation on fathers, sons, and the consequences of the decisions we make. But it's a slow-burner that burns so slowly its wick completely fizzles out. Chris Nashawaty-Entertainment Weekly Mr. Cianfrance's artistic vision catapults it above the limitations of contrivance and into a realm of constantly evolving shifts of tone and mood. Rex Reed-New York Observer ''The Place Beyond the Pines'' aims admirably for an epic sense of Greek tragedy, and it does have some powerful individual moments, but the characters are all so underdeveloped that the whole effort feels like studied posturing. Christy Lemire-Associated Press The movie looks great throughout, blending action, urban drama and family melodrama with a dark, thrumming undertone that holds them together. Andrew O'Hehir-Salon.com Sure to inspire indifference and cultish admiration in nearly equal measure, this extravagant mess may someday be re-evaluated as a misunderstood masterpiece. Scott Foundas-Village Voice We're too close to Drive to see this performance as anything special, but when Suicide's "Che" churns to life on the soundtrack and Gosling peels out, there are thrills to be had. Joshua Rothkopf-Time Out New York Even when the story falters, Cianfrance has assembled a pretty great cast to give his ideas life. You may not always buy the movie, but you buy the people in it. Tim Grierson-Deadspin The opening chapter with a compelling Ryan Gosling as a motorcycle-daredevil bank robber is the strongest element of this three-part drama about fathers, sons and fate. Kevin Lally-Film Journal International There is an inevitability to the story, which builds tension like a snowball propelled by an avalanche. Cianfrance invests it with a sense of tragedy that's Shakespearean. Marshall Fine-Hollywood & Fine An interesting movie, followed by a less interesting movie, followed by a third movie that's even weaker Roger Moore-Movie Nation Cianfrance shows a continuing maturity in his filmmaking style, and once again shows a talent for narrative complexity. Anthony Kaufman-Screen International The Place Beyond The Pines is classic melodrama... the kind Hollywood made in black and white David Poland-Movie City News You'll definitely feel the 2-plus hours run time, but I was more than happy to do so. Kristian Harloff-Schmoes Know A worthy endeavor that is still good, however I bet that falls short of it's lofty goals. Mark Ellis-Schmoes Know Not nearly as strong as Cianfrance's previous movie, but it comes across as an interesting dramatic storytelling experiment that ultimately pays off. Edward Douglas-ComingSoon.net 'The Place Beyond the Pines' comes readymade with a heft. . .as if students have been banging out essays on [it] for years. Jordan Hoffman-ScreenCrush The film never reaches a climax because it's always in one, distilling the lives of its characters to their tensest moments. Ed Gonzalez-Slant Magazine An epic soap opera obscured by high style and buoyed by Ryan Gosling's 8-pack abs, The Place Beyond the Pines is really nothing more than delicious drivel masquerading as a serious drama.
